Christina slipped quietly through the executive floor corridor, keeping a careful distance from Marcus. She'd been tracking his movements all morning, noting the unusual pattern to his security rounds.

Digital tripwires were embedded in each document, set to alert Isabella the moment any version was accessed or transmitted externally.
"Now we wait," Isabella had told Christina earlier that morning. "Whoever accesses and transmits this information will reveal themselves."
